Chicken or Turkey? 

It will  depend on the customs label that the sender places on the goods.
If you can get them to place a low value on the item then they may not be subject to import or VAT.

Is there a way I can have this packaged before it is sent to avoid VAT import tax? .

not without both you and the exporter breaking the law, unless you pre-pay the VAT which some companies are able to do (Amazon US for one)
